It appears this is the one to use, if you want to write maintainable code for others. (Next choice might be Perl*). PL/pgSQL was the choice by Postbooks. Almost 1300 functions (counting triggers) are used for the open source addition. It's a good example of how to do build a nice PG app. But I don't like the environment, namely using Qt and C++. Of course, if you have this environment already setup, and you are a good C++ programmer, then it will not be easy. *Perl was used in SMB Ledger.Minor correction: LedgerSMB uses Perl in the middle layer around the database. All our stored procedures are in SQL or PL/PGSQL depending on complexity of operations and inputs. Best Wishes, Chris Travers I had previously downloaded SMB for an examination, but did not restore the database. Therein I would have seen the stored procedures written in pgSQL. I hope all continues to go well in your SMB project. jt |
